EPA will select up to 70 additional pilots by May 2000. The pilots will be selected on a competitive basis. Selection criteria is outlined in the newly revised guidelines, “The Brownfields Economic Redevelopment Initiative: Proposal Guidelines for Brownfields Cleanup Revolving Loan Fund (November 1999).
